Why did it happen? Several reasons, the main one being high prices and the cost of living. Plus it is traditional and expected that the party out of the White House will gain seats in both the Senate and the House in midterm elections.
I have been only slightly dejected over it. Politics are cyclical, there is the ebb and flow and for Republicans, it is ebb tide. Sometimes you have to just let the rotten structure collapse in a cloud of dust, then rebuild later. Meanwhile. life goes on.
